A big update was due out today, but we haven't quite managed to complete it in time. We know many of you were expecting an update, and though it's not complete it is already in a playable state. There are also many improvements to the game in general. So, for those of you who can't wait a little longer, we've put it up as an optional beta download, accessible to everyone.
There are still some issues, particularly with the new content, there are also areas that are inaccessible or incomplete and some features of the environment are not yet included. Playing through the content now means you will have to eventually restart at the portal to play it in its complete state.
Your current saves will revert to before the portal if you've already gone through it, this will reset the 4th level which now provides access to the new area and features other improvements.
Here's a changelog for this beta version:
